Does the 2009 Mitsubishi Lancer 2.4 Have a timing belt or chain?

There is a timing chain fitted with the 2009 Mitsubishi Lancer 2.4 i-4 engine. The car used the timing belt on all engine models froM2000 to 2007 and made the transition to the timing chain after that year. The explanation for the adjustment is that the timing chain is designed to last the vehicle's life and every 60,000 miles the timing belt will need to be changed. However, the timing chain would not come without complications, but it has a smaller risk of requiring a replacement. In certain situations, the timing chain can become bent and strained from the engine heat over time and may need to be replaced. If this were to happen You can take it to a mechanic or dealership to get the service done for approximately $700 - $1000.
